MICHAEL COLLINS can steer Town back into the automatic promotion places at Tranmere Rovers tonight (7.45).

The 19-year-old midfielder (left) is handed a first League I start in four months at Prenton Park as Peter Jackson's side hunt a win to go second.

Loanee David Graham leads the attack while Chris Brandon (head wound) is set to return to the starting line-up. Andy Booth (hip) will be on the bench against Delroy Facey and Co.

"Michael Collins gets the nod tonight and it's important he takes the chance," said manager Peter Jackson. "He's been very patient, he's got talent and he won't be fazed by trying to unlock a well-organised Tranmere side in a vital game for us."
